A comprehensive genealogical reference, Blackledges in America (2nd Edition) represents years of dedicated research and compilation. In January 2026, the authors transitioned this work from physical library archives and private holdings to this public digital repository. This Internet Archive item fulfills the Team’s mission to provide an accessible, permanent record of the family lineage. We believe that history belongs to the public, and this electronic volume serves as an evergreen resource for the Blackledge community and genealogical historians worldwide.
The work has its own genealogy. In 1996, three longtime researchers of the Blackledge/Blacklidge surname met in Gathersburg, MD and agreed to take on the challenge of combining their individual genealogical research, requesting the assistance of other contributors and family members, and ultimately publishing the resulting collection in a hard copy format available to all. The resulting book (ISBN 0-9722704-0-X ) was a genealogy of Blackledge/Blacklidge descendants with family roots in the United States of America. That First Edition (Nov 2002) represented over 30 years of research captured in 900 pages: some 9000 descendants, most with genealogical narratives.
In the decade that followed, the compilers proceeded with developing a Second Edition to incorporate additions and corrections. This significant revision, the Second Edition (ISBN 978-0-9722704-1-0), far surpasses the First Edition, with three times the descendants and pages, twice as lengthy an Index, plus many additions, corrections, and photographs. A decade in the revision, the work was offered as PDF files on a compact disc (CD) format (readable by Adobe Acrobat). It provides the most extensive genealogy and history ever of the Blackledge/Blacklidge family In the United States.
